So I had no idea this was a spin off series until I got way too lost in the beginning so whoops! But I was able to understand all of what was going and enjoyed it thoroughly (despite being able to guess who our mystery killer was halfway through). Will probably read the sequel if there is one!

This is a spinoff series to this author’s original trilogy Serpent and Dove. I was not vibing with this book at all for the first third. It’s annoying when every plot line is just characters keeping secrets from the main character, causing her to charge recklessly into things repeatedly. But after that 1/3rd mark, the story found its footing and by the end, I was fully invested. I am interested to see where the story goes from here, especially after the huge cliffhanger of an ending
